Infinite Mana In The Apocalypse Chapter 369 - Hunting Team?

Chapter 369 - Hunting Team?

In the expansive Sanctum they just arrived in, the Celestials almost always formed teams in order to hunt these terrible Behemoths and continue their exploration of the Celestial Realm.

"It is routine for Grandmasters at the Domain Expansion Realm to move out together as an Elite Team, these teams being the ones that make the most breakthroughs into new areas or come across wondrous treasures. You two..."

Commanding Officer Raizel locked his gaze towards Noah and Athena as he continued.

"...will either have the option of joining a normal team, or the two of you creating a team yourselves!"

A pondering look appeared on Noah as he turned to see the shining expression of Athena. He knew the War Princess already had her battle sense excited as it could be, her body seeking these dangerous Behemoths they were hearing about even more than him.

He personally enjoyed moving solo, and it went even more spectacularly because of his abilities, but he had to admit that there was still a lot of unknown factors about this Celestial Realm!

This was the realm after all, that even the Celestials themselves had only explored less than 10% of. He would take this dangerous land of opportunity very seriously, and move carefully at first as he gained more and more knowledge of it before he began risking his life by moving solo.

If he had to move with a team though, who better than the War Princess blessed with a Noble Fate, the destructive Celestial that he knew to have a few screws loose, but also had tens of thousands of Fate Lines?

Athena had apparently already made up her mind as she spoke towards the closely watching Grandmaster Vredral.

"Ill move with Junior Brother Crixus. All we would need is the information on the layout and the zones we need to be careful of."

Grandmaster Vredral nodded carefully as the Commanding Officer Raizel chipped in.

"That may be a good idea, but you still need to have someone show you around and familiarize yourself with the norms and the dangers of the Celestial Realm. So for your first hunt, I will have you two move with the best team that is currently not made up of Grandmasters, the Exploration Team called Righteous Fire that is under the lead of your Senior Brother Boru!"

The name of the Senior Brother Boru seemed to carry some weight as the Commanding Officer Raizel had a proud expression, the words he said seeming more like a command and being non-negotiable as he would have the two newcomers become familiar with the Exploration Teams and how they moved first.

Athena and Noah nodded towards this Commanding Officer as the boisterous atmosphere returned.

"Good, this compound we are in is one of the many spread out over the regions we have gained control of, and you will find that many of the bases you go to will have lodgings no less luxurious than the ones you all had in your Celestial Star. For now, go out and explore the close areas of the Sanctum. Ill catch up with this old fool and call you all when I get the status of the Righteous Fire Exploration Team."

"Yes, Grandmaster!"

Noah and Athena stood up while placing their hands to their chest respectfully as they saw Grandmaster Vredral give them the go ahead, the two of them leaving the expansive room and going down the spiral staircase as they came out to see the wondrous sight of the Sanctum once more.

The ancient trees shimmering with essence that were even taller than the building they just came out of, as well as the numerous Prime Warsh.i.p.s they could see coming in and out occasionally made for a unique aesthetic in this paradisiacal Celestial Realm.

Noah walked along the marble roads as he breathed in deeply, immensely enjoying the atmosphere filled with essence as he began to observe the Celestials he could see moving all around.

Many were occupied with their own tasks as they moved quickly, where he could not catch many that were alone, with almost everyone in groups.

What he found interesting was the type of armor and weapons these Celestials carried. Each one could be seen fitted with bulky armor that one could clearly see to be made out of the scales or skin of a beast, with the armors holding a rough exterior that looked impenetrable!

He could also see their weapons were most likely poorly refined bones or teeth of Behemoths as he came to realize ever so slowly just how important these Celestial Beasts were. Athena was looking at this same scene with shining eyes as she spoke out.

"It seems to be the norm to use the materials from the bodies of these humongous behemoths to create armor and weapons that are more effective in hunting down even more of them."

The War Princess had already analyzed what they were seeing as she came up with the exact reason why many of the Celestials they saw were carrying ridiculously large weapons and bulky armor.

Noah nodded as they continued to observe more of the area around them, their eyes landing on a particular group of Celestials that let out a wild aura, causing many of the teams that came across them to move out of the way as they seemed to be heading straight towards their position.

He looked towards Athena who had her eyes squinted as she also focused on this group of beings with powerful auras heading their way as a single one came to the forefront and neared them rapidly.

His body seemed to be of humanoid shape, but he was extremely bulky and large, his stature made even more extreme by the heavy behemoth armor he wore. His height reached 3 meters as he spectacularly had a large jagged Broad Sword that was double his size strapped horizontally to his back. A wide smile covered this beings face as he came close to Noah and Athena, their bodies feeling an oppressive air of a predator as this beings body surprisingly pulsed with a unique and explosive fiery aura!

Noah could see visible sparks of flames appearing and disappearing around this large figures body, and this was compounded with the numerous Fate Lines he could distinctly sense hidden within. This was the first Celestial that Noah had come across who seemed to actively be proficient in two laws- both Fate and Fire, and the power each of these laws released from his body did not seem to be too far apart from one another!

"Haha, you must be the fresh meat that Commanding Officer Raizel is sending me message transmissions about. Nice to meet you! The name is Boru, Boru of the Righteous Flame!"

RUMBLE!

The air seemed to shake with his introduction as the explosive fire elements around him singed the air, the two newly arriving Noah and Athena coming face to face with the leader of one of the most powerful Normal Teams of the Sanctum.
